    David Gorski, MD, PhD Retweeted The Real Expert

    I do so love tone policing, particularly when coupled with condescending, oh-so-“disappointed” “you’re above that” BS. 🙄🤮🤦🏻‍♂️https://twitter.com/Real__Expert/status/1245861911326949376 …

    @gorskon "Vile human being" is pretty harsh. Plus, he's just talking logistics here. His actions must be analyzed/commented/criticized in his capacity, but you are above ad hominems, David.

        The correct response to such tone policing usually involves many expletives.

        Let’s just say that I aim to “disappoint.”

        It's so passive aggressive that I usually go *lower* just to show that I am not.

        Can you please explain how my comment was passive aggressive? Honest question.

        Someone commented the other day they were “disappointed” about a comment I made. I actually LOL.

        Well it's just my opinion that fighting someone should be civil. If you tell someone who believes in homeopathy that they are imbeciles you are not likely to convince them. Plus Kushner's actions or lack thereof speak for themselves. Apologies for the perceived condescension.

        Isn't that what people do when they can't rebut your argument?

        Not necessarily. I actually agree with David on the matter. But of course in a country where the President has been name calling everyone it's hardly surprising that everyone feels they can do the same.
